Sharing is caring; we all know the “bug” that Zapier does not recognizing all new emails in Gmail. Well thats unlucky, but we found a workaround. @greg.kelly & the Zapier Support send us a desperate user and she could not work with her zap anymore. So here is the workaround how to use Gmail, when Zapier does not recognize new emails.

 

You anyway want that only some mails get processed? Than label emails based on specific subjects within gmail. https://www.techjunkie.com/automatically-label-emails-gmail/

Then choose in the Gmail app “New Labeled Email”. If you want that all new emails are processed use: Simply an “@” by from - since all emails contain an @ 

 

next step in Zapier select: “New Labeled Email” and from here it works like usually :)
